Although the Trustees intend to continue this Plan indefinitely, the Trustees reserve the right in their sole and unrestricted discretion to change or discontinue the Supplemental Unemployment Benefit Plan at any time, for any reason. Changes or amendments may be made retroactively, if necessary, to qualify or maintain the benefits programs in order to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Although the Trustees intend to maintain these benefits, economic conditions could cause a benefit reduction. If a substantial number of participants are laid off, benefits under the Supplemental Unemployment Benefit Plan may be lowered so more participants may receive benefits. The Supplemental Unemployment Benefit may also be lowered or discontinued because of insufficient fund assets. The Trustees may suspend Supplemental Unemployment Benefits in times of low unemployment.
